ENG

• Do not use abrasive cleaners or bleach.

1. Important.

Gate must be installed in a structurally sound
opening. The hinge side of gate must be
mounted to a rigid surface.

Ensure mounting surface (wall, door frame,
stairpost, etc.) is strong, rigid and has an even
surface.

2. If using gate on a stairway, it must be placed

either on top stair or on lowest stair at the
bottom.

3. The correct width will be achieved by

adjusting gate sections and all four corner
spindles. Each spindle adjusts individually and
may be extended varying lengths to allow for
molding, uneven walls, etc. Spindles may be
extended a minimum of 11/4” (hinge side) or 1”
(on locking side) and a maximum of 3”.

4. Adjust sections until gate is approximately

the correct width and adjustment holes are
aligned and overlap in two places on both the
top and bottom rail (maximum overlap is 5
bars).
Sections should fit without any distance
between rails or bars.

5. Place screws (i) and screw sockets (j) in top

and bottom sets of overlapping adjustment
holes nearest hinge and locking sides of gate.
Do not fully tighten yet.

6. Slide 1 lock washer (s) onto upper hinge

spindle (h). Place 1 lock nut (r) in top rail hole of
one gate section. Screw spindle into rail.

7. Slide 1 lock washer (s) onto lower hinge

spindle (d). Place 1 lock nut (r) in bottom rail
hole of same side. Screw spindle into rail.
Extend spindles equally.

8. Slide 1 lock washer (s) onto 1 locking latch

spindle (n). Place 1 lock nut (r) in top rail hole of
second gate section. Screw spindle into rail.
Repeat for bottom rail.

Extend spindles equally.
Final spindle adjustments will be made later.

9. Hinge Side Mounting

Screws provided are for mounting directly
into wood. If mounting into brick, drywall or
other surfaces, use appropriate hardware. If
installing into hardwood (i.e. oak), drilling a
pilot hole may be necessary.

Hold template (a) vertically and completely
outstretched against mounting surface with the
end marked “ ” even with the floor.

Mark 4 screw hole positions.
Remove template.

10. Using 2 wood screws (k), mount upper

hinge (g) (with hole pointing up) in top 2 screw
hole positions.

11. Using 2 wood screws, (k) mount lower hinge

bottom (c) (with post pointing up) in bottom 2
screw hole positions.

12. Locking Side Mounting

Screws provided are for mounting directly
into wood. If mounting into brick, drywall or
other surfaces, use appropriate hardware. If
installing into hardwood (i.e. oak), drilling a
pilot hole may be necessary.

Hold template (b) vertically and completely
outstretched against mounting surface with the
end marked “ ” even with the floor.

Mark 4 screw hole positions.
Remove template.

13. Determine which direction the gate should

open. For the top of stairways, gate should
never open out over the stairs.

Insert stop pins (o) from behind in holes of
locking latch bracket (l) and lower latch bracket
(m) opposite desired opening direction.

Important: The gate cannot open to the stop
pin side.

14. Using 2 wood screws (k) mount locking

latch bracket (l) in top 2 screw hole positions.

15. Using 2 wood screws (k), mount lower latch

bracket (m) in bottom 2 screw hole positions.

16. Center gate in opening. Adjust upper hinge

spindle (h) so post fits into upper hinge hole (g).

17. Adjust lower hinge spindle (d) so end fits

over lower hinge post (c).
Space between end of gate and mounting

surface on hinge side may be no less than
1

1/4” and not more than 3”.

18. Adjust locking latch spindles (n) until they fit

securely into both latch brackets. Top spindle
must click under locking latch when in the
closed position.
